The frame broke where the front differential mounts, this let the front axle twist and you can not steer the truck!!! I think this is very dangerous, if you were going over 5 mph. You could not turn.ford factory rep. Says the truck is out of warranty so not there problem, they will not do anything about it. Ford should fix this at there expense as this a safety concern.
